Check Out Our Profile

Monday, March 8, 2010 by Tyler D
Social networking has become one of the best ways to stay in touch with people and share/learn more about one another.  It's easy to upload pictures and keep your friends updated with what's going on just with a few clicks of the mouse.  Just think how many words and phrases have been created just because of social networking:

"Tweeting" is no longer an action
restricted to songbirds.  Ten years ago I would have been been scared if someone said they would "facebook" me...I probably would have thought that I was going to get a broken nose from a hardback.  A "connection" would have likely registered as a flight that I had to catch at the airport.

The point is, social networking has become an important part of our everyday lives, and companies like North American Bancard understand this.  It's pretty neat that you can get online and learn more about a company from a less formal perspective.  Just take a look at some of NAB's tweets, they're really informative and you don't have to read through a bunch of text to get the point.  You may see updates on anything ranging from new Magtek products to available jobs or internships with North American Bancard.

So make sure that you check out North American Bancard on Facebook, LinkedIn, and Twitter.  You can just follow the links to the right on this page, they will take you directly to our profile.

Keeping You Informed

Sunday, March 7, 2010 by Tyler D
I like to try to read as much as I can about a product or service before I make a purchase...at least with relatively large purchases.  It's really helpful to have information available to do background research ahead of time so that you are able to understand the business and its offerings better.  That is one reason why we here at North American Bancard make sure to keep you updated through various outlets, including this blog.

Telephone Orders are Still Important!

Sunday, March 7, 2010 by Tyler D
Yes, online shopping has become one of the biggest methods of commerce, but you don't want to forget the others (telephone, in-store, mail order, etc).  No matter what type of business you are, it's important to provide your customers with options for payment rather than limiting them to one method.  There are a number of reasons to provide this flexibility. 

First, it can increase your sales by extending your reach to a variety of clients.  Difference audiences prefer different methods of payment, so make sure that they have the choice to use their preferred method.

Next, technology can sometimes be unpredictable.  North American Bancard's products are highly reliable, but even so, it's good to have a back-up.  If your online store isn't functioning properly, it's necessary to provide the option of paying by credit card in another way, such as over the phone.

NAB has so many products for any type of business.  We want you to consider all of your options and make sure that you have what you need to serve your customers.  Whether you want to process mobile payments or use  services, we've got you covered.  Just visit us online to learn more!

Just for Fun

Friday, March 5, 2010 by Tyler D
Sometimes it's good to try something new and add a little bit of variety to your business.  I'm not talking about doing something without careful consideration, but rather creating a point of differentiation between your business and the competitors.  It's not good to just blend in, so let North American Bancard help you get noticed.

Our payment systems will not only make things easier for your business, but they will also impress your customers.  Take, for example, a terminal that allows you to process mobile payments.  You don't have to be bound to the confines of your retail space when you implement a wireless credit card terminal; you are free to roam outside of the store to bring your products to the customer.  Whether it be a local outdoor market, festival, or any other out-of-store location, you will be ready to go.

So why not try something new?...just for fun...and as a point of differentiation.  Just talk to NAB to get started.  You can find us online at nabancard.com or give us a call at 1-800-BANCARD.

Why You Should Consider the Verifone Vx570 Credit Card Terminal

Monday, March 1, 2010 by Tyler D
There are so many options when considering what credit card equipment to use for your business, but if you're looking for suggestions...I would recommend you take a look at the Verifone Vx570.  This great little machine is packed full of features to help you accept credit cards more efficiently.  With its smart and stylish design, the Vx570 is not only one of the most aesthetically pleasing pieces of equipment, but also one of the fastest.  It has support for both dial-up and Ethernet activity so that your business has more flexibility in the implementation of this device.

The bright background display makes it easy for the clerk to see what's on the screen and therefore minimize user errors that can frustrate customers.  Its layout is very familiar and highly intuitive due the ATM-style interface, which also makes it more difficult to make errors when processing transactions.

That's not all...the Vx570 has an integrated USB port, built-in thermal printer, advanced graphics-handling capabilities, and more!  To use this credit card machine most efficiently with your payment system, talk to North American Bancard today.

Tips for a Happy Customer: Be Understanding

Sunday, February 28, 2010 by Tyler D
What do you do when a customer gives your business a call with a question? ...you listen, right?  One important distinction to make, however, is that "listening" is very different from "hearing".  These two words are often used interchangeably and can make or break the perception of a customer service department and a company as a whole.

It is important to truly consider what the customer has to say, whether or not you agree with it.  You want to be understanding and try to put yourself in their shoes.  This will speak volumes to the customer and put them at ease, knowing that everything will be taken care of.

The customer service department is one of the most important parts of a business.  North American Bancard understands this and makes sure that the customer is understood.  Our representatives truly care, and want to make sure that each and every client gets what they need.  No matter what they have to say, whether it be a North American Bancard complaints or compliments, we want to hear it.  If there is a problem with you credit card machine, we want to help you get it fixed!  You can see what I mean by checking out a few North American Bancard reviews

So, the moral of the story is: listen to your customers so that you can understand what they need...if you need a snapshot of what this looks like, just give NAB a call at 1-800-BANCARD today!

Payment Processing - More of What You Need, Less of What You Don't

Sunday, February 28, 2010 by Tyler D
I don't know about you, but I find it bit frustrating when my options become limited...at least when I'm buying a product or service.  I am a firm believer in the fact that customers shouldn't have to worry about whether or not they are getting the most for their money.  This may be a bit of an idealistic view in today's marketplace, but North American Bancard wants to go against the grain and make it happen.  We make sure to give you business more of what you need...and less of what you don't.

Why pay for extra features when you don't need or want them?  That's our philosophy, at least: you deserve a payment system designed specifically for the needs of your business.  We have great online applications such as Authorize.net if you a looking for a solution packed full of features, or simple countertop terminals if you want to stick with the basics.  How about mobile credit card terminals?  There truly is something for every type of business.
